    great location
    helpful staff
    nice breakfast
    no fridge
    noisy hallways

    the location of the hotel is super convenient, really close to sandton city and the train station. staff were always nice and helpful, made me feel welcome. enjoyed the fitness center too! breakfast had a good variety of food, felt like a great way to start the day. the garden in the back was a lovely spot to unwind.

    the room could have used a mini fridge, and the noise from the hallway was kinda annoying at times.

    basic breakfast
    cold pool

    ah, where should I start? the breakfast was basic at best, and the pool was downright frigid—like they'd forgotten heating was a thing. also, can’t believe I wasn't offered a complimentary upgrade after all the inconvenience. I almost gave a good review, but then I remembered all the neglect. not impressed, garden court.

    location advantage
    small room
    limited bar

    excellent location, inviting swimming pool, fully fitted gym

    The room was cramped for sharing!!! Early check-in resulted in an uncleaned room!!! The bar needs to expand its drink options!!!

    Great stay in the heart of Sandton

    I really loved my time here! The family room was super cozy, perfect for us. The breakfast spread was delicious, lots of options! Plus, the big outdoor pool was a hit with the kids. Definitely a solid choice!

    spacious room
    buffet-style breakfast
    great location
    ineffective climate control
    slammed doors

    my stay was fantastic! the spacious room was a nice upgrade from my last visit, and having a buffet-style breakfast was a great way to start the day. the location across from sandton city made it so easy to explore and shop.

    climate control in the room was ineffective.

    outdoor pool
    breakfast variety
    minor room issues

    Had a wonderful stay and loved lounging by the outdoor pool, which was perfect for unwinding. The breakfast was top-notch with plenty of tasty options to kickstart the day. Just a heads up, our room had a few small things that could've been better, like some light switches not working, but overall we really enjoyed our time. 🌞

    convenient location
    delicious breakfast
    missing fridge

    Staying at this hotel was quite the experience, especially with our two babies! The breakfast spread blew us away, and the friendly staff made our mornings delightful. The location is super convenient, just a short stroll to the amazing shopping areas. The kids loved splashing in the big pool!

    My kids wished there was a small fridge in the room.

    great location
    good breakfast
    friendly staff
    slow wifi
    lack of mini fridge

    this hotel is in a super comfy location, just a hop away from the sandton mall and convention center. breakfast spread was really good, and i loved the complimentary drinks in the afternoon. the room was cozy and clean. The staff were super friendly, makin sure we had everything we needed. the pool area was nice for chillin after a long day. felt really safe there too, with security around the place.

    but the wifi was kinda slow and limited, which was annoying. also, i wish there was a mini fridge in the room, it woulda been really handy.

    safe location
    welcoming staff
    poor service
    room readiness
    inconsistent cleanliness

    A safe location next to the mall ensured easy access to amenities, enhancing the overall experience. The staff was welcoming, making requests feel effortless, such as quickly providing a fridge. poor service with room readiness significantly marred the stay, leading to frustration as numerous follow-ups were necessary. Cleanliness was not consistent, impacting comfort levels during the stay.
